Alien Baby Rushed to Hospital!
1999-11-05 11:07:02
OK, so no one really thought it was an Alien, they actually thought it was a human foetus. But it was actually an Alien! OK, it was actually a plastic alien toy. But it was really gross!! No one can say it wasn't really gross! It was slimy and metallic and had big ears, it's also expected to be one of this Xmass's biggest hits! And have I mentioned the British are really weird?
OK, I should probably take a moment to explain that I already wrote this article yesterday, and it was beautiful and melodious and used a short, concise sentence structure. But that version was lost in a rip in the space/time continuum so you'll just gots t' deal with this one. So here are the basic points I made in that first article:
- Janitor find little slimy thing, thinks it's a human foetus.
- Police close train station as possible crime scene an rush little slimy thing to hospital for autopsy.
- Doctors realize it's a plastic alien toy.
- Toy is very popular in England.
- British drink to much on their lunch breaks
- British kids are real gross for wanting little slimy things for Xmass.
the end.

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
